When Liu Wei said that he was a court official and wanted to test the newly made farm tools in their village, Li Zheng was very excited and welcomed Liu Wei and the others to an empty field where no crops were planted. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The village is also shouting at a few villagers to come over, one by one, holding the plows, looking at Liu Wei and his party, wanting to see what the new farm tools created by the imperial court look like.

Liu Wei looked at Yang Zaixing, Yang Yansi and others, and the two of them carried three hoes and put them in front of the villagers.

The villagers looked at the three novel hoes, scrambling to hold them in their hands and gestured, Liu Wei looked at Li Zheng, introduced the three hoes, and explained: "This hoe is called a plate hoe, which is used to reclaim the land, this one is called a hoe, which is used for weeding, and the one with a longer hoe blade is called a hoe, which is used to reclaim the difficult land." You call a few folks who are good at work, and compare them with these three hoes to see if they are good! ”

"I'm coming, I'm coming!" The people are scrambling to test the hoe one by one, and the court will also weed, and the hoes used for reclamation are separated? They all use plows, where do they get such a breakdown? When I first saw these three hoes, they were all very novel.

"Lao Li, Zhao Si, and you, you, a few of you come and try!" Li is picking out a few strong men from the village.

Liu Wei looked at these people, all of them were dark-skinned and clumsy, but this was caused by long-term bending and hoeing, but it was undeniable that they were good at work.

"Let's try the hoe first, then weeding with a hoe, and then use a hoe to plow the hard soil!" Liu Wei ordered to go down.

The land under Liu Bian's feet was not planted, and the people who were experimenting with one with a hoe and the other with a plow were experimenting in the field, and Liu Bian and others stood in the ditch on both sides to watch.

The two people worked hard to cultivate, at the beginning, the people who used the plows to reclaim were a little faster, and the people who took the hoes were not easy to get around. It's not that the hoe is not easy to use, but the first time to use it is not accustomed, as if used to chopsticks, suddenly with a knife and fork to eat, but the hard-working people, soon mastered the use of the hoe, and then came to the top, about half an hour later, the people with the hoe have reclaimed about five zhang of land, and with the plow, but three zhang.

The officials around Liu Wei were full of joy one by one, and they used a hoe to reclaim the land, which was so much faster than that of the plow, so that the efficiency of agricultural production was much faster, which meant that more crops could be planted and the Han could have more food!

Liu Wei clapped his hands, the two people came back with hoes, and the people holding the hoes reluctantly returned the hoes to Yang Zaixing, Liu Wei smiled and said: "Since the hoe is easy to use, it will be popularized soon, and you will all use it in the future!"

The people were full of surprises one by one, and Liu Wei asked the people to test the hoe, the hoe, and sure enough, at the beginning, the people were not used to it for the first time, but after mastering it, whether it was weeding or reclaiming hard soil, the speed was much faster.

The three hoes have been tested, and their efficiency has been obvious, and now that the ministers have seen it, it is naturally easy to promote it. Li Zheng invited Liu Wei and others to sit at home and drank the water from the township farmer's house, and Liu Wei asked: "Li Zheng don't know if you know that there is a person named Jia Siqian in the nearby village?"

"Jia Sixian? It's in our village, but he lives at the end of the village, my lord, he is a powerful person, he grows a lot of crops at home, and raises livestock, which is better than what we plant, and he also teaches us, so the grain in our village is better than that of other villages, and the yield is much higher. Rizheng said with a smile.

Cai Yong was surprised when he heard this: "There is such a talent, and the method he handed over to you actually increased the output of the entire village?" This shows that he really has a set, if it can be popularized, won't the grain output of my Han have increased? ”

Liu Wei nodded and said, "Please also take us to meet the wizard!"

"Good!" Li Zheng nodded, and took Liu Wei and others to the end of the village, the mountain village relied on a big mountain, and the end of the village was at the foot of the mountain, Liu Wei came to the end, only to see that many fields had been reclaimed at the foot of the mountain, and a river in the mountains and forests meandered down from the mountain, with bamboo tubes in the middle, and irrigation entered a piece of field, and there were many fruit trees in the fields.

And in the field, there are also many crops growing, growing extremely strong, Liu Wei looked at this scene, and couldn't help but recall his parents, this scene has a bit of the essence of the countryside in later generations.

"Good boy, the grain here is really good!" Several ministers couldn't help but say. In the open space at the foot of the mountain, there was a thatched hut, Li Zheng arrived with Liu Wei and others, and directly pushed open the door, only to see a man in the inner hall who was about thirty-five years old, writing something on the desk.

"Jia Siqian come out quickly, there are adults in the court who want to see you, you said that you raised chickens in the house and did something, it stinks!" Rimasa said while covering his nose.

"Chickens are afraid of the cold, it takes more than a month to release them, if you don't put them in the house, no wonder your chickens can't live!" Jia Siqian said and walked out of the house.

"What do you do with it? It's better to eat eggs. Li Zheng said disapprerovingly.

"It's good to raise, not only eggs every day, but also chicken to eat, this is a long-term plan, it's just that, I won't tell you, who will come to me?"

Li Zheng pointed to Liu Wei and the others: "Several adults in the imperial court want to see you!"

Jia Siqian looked at Liu Wei and the others, bowed and saluted: "Jia Siqian has seen a few adults, I don't know what the adults are looking for?"

"You won't invite us to sit down?" Liu Wei said with a smile.

Jia Siqian said embarrassedly: "The cold house is simple, and I have chickens, so it is inconvenient to entertain a few distinguished guests, please forgive me."

"Go and move a few rocks!" Liu Wei said to Yang Zaixing and the others.

Yang Zaixing, Yang Yansi and others went to the river to move a few big stones, Lu Zhi, Cai Yong and other old ministers were old, and Liu Wei asked them to sit down and rest. Liu Bianzi and Jia Siqian said: "If you want to raise chickens, you can build a bamboo cage and put it next to your home, supplemented by hay, but it is really not good to put it at home."

Jia Sixian's eyes lit up and said, "Childe has experience in raising livestock?" This is a good exchange, but I put it at home in order to observe and record its habits, organize and record it, and make a book for the benefit of future generations, not a sloppy life. ”

Liu Wei smiled and did not deny, but he was surprised by Jia Sixian's foresight, the people of the Han Dynasty did not have enough food to eat, let alone raise livestock. The popularity of domestic livestock did not develop until the later seventies and eighties in the countryside. And Jia Siqian now understands the benefits of raising livestock to the people, and he is worthy of being a person who can write the key techniques of the people.

And when the ministers first saw Jia Sixian, Jia Sixian's body still had a slight smell, and he only felt that this time it was in vain, but after listening to Jia Sixian's explanation, his eyes lit up, could it be that this person kept livestock and wrote any books?

A peasant book, but it can benefit the world, everyone looked at Jia Siqian in surprise.

Seeing the gazes of everyone, Jia Siqian explained: "To be honest, I am writing a book and compiling it into an agricultural book, including agronomy, horticulture, afforestation, sericulture, animal husbandry, veterinary, breeding, brewing, cooking, storage, and famine control, etc., I put the chickens at home, just to record their habits and sort out the breeding methods."

"Is there such a writing? Have you ever been good? Cai Yong said in surprise.

"It's been written, it's called "Qi Min's Technique", but there are some places that need to be sorted out!" Jia replied.

"Sir's move is to benefit the people, and it will be famous for generations to come!" Lu Zhi, Cai Yong and other old ministers praised.

Dahan is a big agricultural country, based on agriculture, Jia Siqian created an agricultural book, isn't it Huili's descendants?

"We are court officials, the court will recuperate in the next few years, the Son of Heaven has decided to develop agriculture, and the villagers of your village use your method to grow crops with higher yields than other villages. I wonder if you are willing to contribute your talents, strong man? Liu Wei looked at Jia Siqian and said.

Jia Siqian was overjoyed and said: "I created "Qi Min Yao Shu" for the benefit of the people, so I am naturally willing to take it out!"

Liu Wei shook his head and said, "It's not just "Qi Min's Technique", I mean you are willing to become an official?" If you are a person in agronomy, if you can coordinate the overall situation, Dahan agriculture can develop rapidly. ”

Jia Siqian pondered for a moment and said: "If you are an official, you are not very proficient in it."

Liu Wei said with a smile: "You are just a fictitious position, you don't have to participate in court politics, you only need to be in charge of agriculture."

"So I agreed!" Jia Siqian nodded in agreement.

"Then you wait at home, create "Qi Min's Technique", and someone will come to you after a while, you can follow him to Luoyang City." Liu Wei said with a smile.

"Okay!"

Liu Wei stayed at Jia Sixian's place for a while, Jia Siqian took Liu Wei and others to visit his farm, and the ministers were deeply curious about Jia Sixian's planting, and they were all impressed after seeing it.

Bidding farewell to Jia Sixian, Liu Wei returned to Luoyang with his ministers, and on the way Liu Wei talked with Lu Zhi, Cai Yong and others: "In the past two or three years, the Han Dynasty will not start a big war, so I plan to develop agriculture and commerce, form a Ministry of Commerce, and ...... Ministry of Agriculture."

Before Liu Wei finished speaking, Cai Yong's face pulled and stopped Liu Wei's way: "Your Majesty, agriculture is the foundation of the country, Your Majesty wants to develop agriculture and create these three hoes, and Jia Siqian presides over the development of agriculture, and the old minister raised his hands in agreement." But business, not prosperous! ”

Lu Zhi on the side also dissuaded: "Cai Gong is right, businessmen are profit-oriented, if they are prosperous, the people are profit-seeking, and there are no people to farm......"

Liu Wei also waved his hand to signal Lu Zhi not to say any more, Liu Wei smiled and said: "Your worries are superfluous, I naturally know the conflict between farmers and merchants, and I can make up for the lack of merchants by promoting agriculture this time, right?"

"But with three farm tools, I'm afraid I can't!" Cai Yong shook his head and said.

The corners of Liu Wei's mouth hooked: "Not only these three farm tools, I am also planning to use the waterwheel for irrigation, the plough for the cultivated land, and the ploughing ox and many other aspects!"

"There are so many?" The ministers were surprised.

"None of this is the point, what if I say that Gao Zu has given me a dream again?" The corners of Liu Wei's mouth hooked.

"Gaozu Tuomeng?" Cai Yong Lu Zhi's eyes were full of puzzlement, and he didn't react for a while, but Yang Miaozhen's eyes lit up and said, "Your Majesty is talking about sweet potatoes?" Gaozu has given a divine object like a sweet potato again? ”

"Your Majesty, really?" Lu Zhi Cai Yong said in surprise.

Last time, Liu Wei exchanged sweet potatoes for a dream. Now that Gaozu has dreamed again, wouldn't there be a crop like sweet potatoes again?

You must know that sweet potatoes were born, saving many people, and their yield directly compared to the five grains, if it were not for the fact that sweet potatoes could not be eaten more, and it was not conducive to storage, Cai Yong and Lu Zhi couldn't wait to plant sweet potatoes all over the country. Now that such a high-yield crop has come out, how can Lu Zhi Cai Yong not be excited?

Tuo Mengzhi said that Liu Wei was helpless, after all, there were so many seeds in the system, and he would have to exchange them in the future. If it's looking for it in the name of hunting, it's a little weird, once or twice is okay, and no one will doubt it, right? It is better to pretend to be a dream of Gaozu to strengthen the mystery of the monarchy and use it to consolidate his rule. As for how to evaluate the history books of later generations, Liu Wei can't control it, and he will first strengthen the Han Dynasty.

"This time it's three, and the yield is no less than that of sweet potatoes!" Liu Wei stretched out three fingers and said.

"Your Majesty, where is this artifact, let's go and find it quickly." Cai Yong said in surprise.

"What about the Ministry of Commerce? Can it be formed? ”

"This ...... If there really is such a divine object, it is not impossible to form a business department, but it is necessary to think carefully and formulate a specific strategy. Cai Yong gritted his teeth and said.

Liu Wei was secretly happy in his heart, the role of crops was really huge, and he even made an old Confucian stubborn like Cai Yong agree to set up a Ministry of Commerce.

"Haha, let's go back to the palace to discuss specific matters, Ding Gong has a stroke, I want to go to see Ding Gong, you go back to the house first, tomorrow morning the court will discuss the formation of the second department of business and agriculture!" By the way, there is also the imperial examination, the formation of the second department requires a large number of talents, you should prepare in advance! Liu Wei waved his hand, and returned to the palace with Yang Miaozhen to protect Mi Zhen Xie Daoyun first, and he himself and Yang Zaixing, Yang Yansi and others went to Ding Guanfu.
